It would have taken about 1 minute to put each of them into a tool like Casetext, Lexis, WL, or Bloomberg Law to determine they didn't exist.

Oh interesting. I would be willing to give them a shot one again one day (there are so few purveyors of pre-installed Linux computers), though not for the ~$1k Thelio costs. Right …

The stitching of the mice together is by far worse than anything else I've read in this thread. One of the worst things I've read in a while, in fact.

Or good lawyering by MSFT's lawyers. Your comment implies that the Federal government legit thinks MSFT's monopolies are ok, and that they always get what they want in this area. O…

Fake news about Hillary Clinton is a good example, as is Breitbart's very existence, as are foreign reddit bots, as are a lot of political extremists parroting views in their own p…

This isn't new, but most Republicans didn't care when the brunt of this was felt by Muslims and others. Only when a far-right politician who plays to white supremacist tropes wante…

NYPost is in a liminal spot; for example, if it's saying something happened in NYC, that thing likely happened in NYC, in my experience. Its commentary on said event can likely be …

I don't begrudge a place not dealing in cash, but the no paper menu thing is really annoying, and I find surprising unanimity among my friends about this. I am currently in NYC but…

Not really sure how Mohammed can be said to have a "dubious" history. If you don't want to believe the traditional accounts, that's fair, but late antiquity was not a golden age of…

I think this line of thinking is unrealistic and rather unempathetic. People on both sides of culture war issues really do care about them. I agree that there are a number of more …
